TEDDY DID IT
I never broke the drawmgroom vase. That was mummy's most precious and best; I never made a peach jam streak. Down daddy's new navy blue vest, Taddv did it!
I never undid cook's apron string*. Or tipped up her silly cake tin, I never, when cook was at the back door. Smashed her ugly basin. Teddy did it!
X never tore up Donald's school books. Or threw his cap in the stream; Z never made big holes in the lawn. Or dirtied my dress that was clean. Teddy did it! —JUDITH HANNA. M.G., L.8.H., A.8.H., PJ3.H., A.P.S., A. 8., C.M.H. Fendalton.
